About to turn 40 and need some suggestions for a midlife crisis. Maybe I’ll start dating a stripper and doing blow, everything is on the table.

Try doing something younger guys do, they will keep you young when you try to keep up. Mine is paintball.

Something where you need lawyers, guns, and money. Preferably in Havana.

A friend I grew up with did exactly that during a midlife crisis. He bought a bunch of dirt bikes too. It didn't end well though |

I play beer league coed kickball with a bunch of mid 20 to early 30 somethings (I had a double header last night). If I'm being honest I'm faster than most of the younger cats out there except maybe the few 10-20 year olds. Maybe when I turn 50 I'll start the cliche, bourbon tasting, cigar smoking, meat smoking, convertible, 20 something sidepiece having, etc. Until then it's going to be jello shots, kickball, and a little bit of 3 gun. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By scrambler28: I went the motorcycle route. Same. Wife says "Absolutely not, no, no, not now, not ever. Promise me right now you will not get a motorcycle." I say "I've wanted a motorcycle for over 20 years. I'm absolutely 100% going to get a motorcycle. I promise I'll take a safety class though." By not just immediately caving in, I think I reset her to factory settings. I bought a shitty project bike on facebook and got sick of trying to get it to run so I went to the Royal Enfield dealer and bought a new bike and then got rid of the project. "Hey I'm just going to buy a new bike so I can actually ride, I'll sell the bmw at some point." "ok, go for it" Now, I think she is half planning on my death being her ticket to financial independence, and that has something to do with her acquiescence. But I don't care, I've got my bike. Already shopping for another one. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Burnsy: I did the math and that's 10 miles a day. I am glad you enjoy the bike but your comment about still being alive...it's probably because some people run further every day on foot than you have ridden it. Now wait a minute! It was in service a whole summer, we haven't reached the 8th summer yet, and this is Michigan where the roads aren't slippery for two whole months! ETA: And the RGU has 78K in 10y. |
